Northfield Robotics
Industries

Where the work is repetitive, heavy, or hazardous.

Northfield builds take over the transport and inspection tasks that consume labor and put people near risk.

01 · WAREHOUSING & LOGISTICS

Warehousing

Move pallets, carts, and totes without adding headcount to the night shift. AGVs handle the fixed loops; AMRs flex with daily volume.

Bespoke AGVBespoke AMR
Dock-to-storage pallet moves
Fixed tow loops between receiving and racking, 24/7.
Goods-to-person picking
AMRs bring shelves and totes to pick stations.
Replenishment runs
Scheduled top-ups to forward-pick locations.
Empty-carrier returns
Carts and pallets returned without a driver.
02 · MANUFACTURING

Manufacturing

Keep lines fed without forklift traffic on the floor. Units integrate with MES calls and deliver line-side on takt.

Bespoke AGVWork cells
Line-side delivery
Kitted parts delivered to stations on schedule or MES call.
Inter-cell transport
WIP moved between cells without operator interruption.
Machine tending
Vision-guided cells load and unload equipment.
Scrap and returns
Waste loops handled off-shift.
03 · PORTS & INTRALOGISTICS

Ports & yards

Long distances, mixed traffic, and weather. Hardened platforms move material across yards and between buildings.

Bespoke AGVLegged systems
Cross-yard transfer
Scheduled runs between warehouses and staging areas.
Gate-to-dock shuttles
Documents and small freight moved without a vehicle.
Yard inspection
Legged patrols across gravel, rail, and grating.
Night perimeter checks
Scheduled routes with thermal sensing.
04 · ENERGY & UTILITIES

Energy & utilities

Substations, plants, and pipelines need eyes on them daily. Our legged systems walk the route with thermal and acoustic sensing, every shift, in any weather.

Legged systems
Thermal inspection
Hotspot detection on transformers, breakers, and rotating equipment.
Acoustic anomaly detection
Bearing wear and gas leaks flagged before failure.
Gauge and dial reading
Optical readings logged on every pass.
Confined and elevated routes
Stairs, grating, and catwalks - no scaffolding, no permits.
05 · DEFENSE & SECURITY

Defense & security

Perimeter patrol and unmanned logistics for bases and critical infrastructure. Mesh comms, no cloud dependency, and full mission logging.

Legged systemsBespoke AMR
Perimeter patrol
Scheduled and randomized routes with anomaly alerts.
Forward resupply
Unmanned last-leg transport of supplies and equipment.
Sensor picket
Persistent observation posts that reposition on command.
Air-gapped operation
On-premise fleet server; no external connectivity required.
